Zul Noordin tells Wan Azizah to quit

Zul lashes out against PKR's Wan Azizah, insisting she quit as party chief.

Sacked PKR MP Zulkifli Noordin has ticked off Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail for asking him to quit the Kulim-Bandar Baharu seat, saying she should instead quit as party president for not defending Islam.

He said her failure for “losing” four MPs and an equal number of assemblymen since Election 2008 meant she should also vacate her post.

Zul spewed criticisms and insulted Wan Azizah's 'pseudo-Islamic' ways

“She has failed as a president to uphold the principles of PKR, although supposedly pledging to defend Islam and special position of the Islamic institution as enshrined in the Federal Constitution,” he said in a statement tonight.

The first-time MP insisted he will not quit the Kulim-Bandar Baharu seat as he mocked Wan Azizah for her pseudo-Islamic ways.

His attack against the wife of de facto PKR leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim came a day after she disclosed that Zulkifli had kept silent when the “Allah” ruling was debated in the Pakatan Rakyat coalition.

“Islam is not limited only to her small silk glove á la Michael Jackson!” said Zulkifli, referring to Wan Azizah’s penchant for gloves when shaking hands with others.

The eye doctor who wears a head scarf uses the glove as Islam forbids members of the opposite sex from touching anyone apart from family.
